Triumphal Feast • 1st John Series 11. “Be Your Own Fact Checker” pt. 1

1st John Series • 11. Be Your Own Fact Checker – 1st John 4:1-6 Part 1
In Chapter 4, the Apostle John sounds another warning to God’s people to be aware of and avoid the false doctrines of the world. John tells us to put everything we hear “on trial” by comparing it to the word of God. When we do this we can have assurance that we are standing in the truth and have peace and joy despite the fact we are surrounded by wickedness and hate in the world.

Triumphal Feast • 1st John Series 10. “Perceive” pt. 1

1st John Series • 10. Perceive – 1st John 3:10-24 – Part 1
In this message, Elder Bryce teaches us to perceive three things in our discipleship. First of all, we should understand that the world hates us because it hates righteousness. Secondly, We are to understand that God loves us because He acted upon that love and sent His Son to die for us. And lastly, in response to these two things, we should act out our love for God by actively loving others. When we do this, we perceive that we are of God. This justification by faith assures us in our own hearts that we are of God and can still live in liberty even though the whole world lies in wickedness.

Triumphal Feast • 1st John Series 9. “Tadpoles & Frogs” pt. 2

1st John Series • 9. Tadpoles and Frogs – 1st John 3:4-10 The nature of man without God is dead in sin and serves only sin. An unregenerate person is “committed” to sinning.

Elder Bryce concludes this message with the charge to live like Christ by breathing in love and living out that love.

Triumphal Feast • 1st John Series 9. “Tadpoles & Frogs” pt. 1

1st John Series • 9. Tadpoles and Frogs – 1st John 3:4-10 The nature of man without God is dead in sin and serves only sin. An unregenerate person is “committed” to sinning. But when a child of God is born again, the person now has within him the nature of Christ and now has two natures. The old nature is still there but the new nature is no longer bound by sin and committed to it. He can now do righteousness. These righteous behaviors “manifest” the person as being a born-again child of God.

Triumphal Feast • 1st John Series 7 “The Spirit of Antichrist” pt. 2

1st John Series • 7 The Spirit of Antichrist part 2 – 1st John 2:18-29  Today’s edition is the conclusion of the message “The Spirit of Antichrist.” There is a common thread of misunderstanding being taught in most Christian churches today. The Lord’s people are being taught to look for, and worry about, a single antichrist that comes at the end of time. This error has caused many to ignore the spirit of antichrist that was present in the time of the Apostles and still vexes us today.

1st John Series • 7 The Spirit of Antichrist part 1 – 1st John 2:18-29  In this message, Elder Bryce continues teaching about John’s warning to God’s people to beware of false teachers and their influence. Our concern should not be in looking for a single antichrist at the end of time but avoiding the influence of the many antichrist teachings that bombard us every day.
